Bretonnia Derby at 1500 Points: Knights vs Skaven Underground
We’ve been ironing out the shape of our upcoming Warhammer: The Old World campaign, and this was one of those very fun hobby conversations where practical list-building, campaign rules, painting panic, and wild narrative ideas all collided at once.
We had one of those very satisfying hobby moments this week: Wilini finished the first Damsel, and honestly, she came out great.
Sometimes a hobby week starts with us definitely not buying anything… and ends with someone being a thousand down and very happy about it.
Sometimes a hobby purchase starts with a very normal, very dangerous question: “what model even is this?”
Sometimes army-building starts with grand strategy. Sometimes it starts with spotting a nicely painted second-hand transport online and thinking: honestly, this is cheaper than the box, and someone else already did the hard part. This week was definitely more of...
The last battle of Cinquecento is underway
We had one of those very relatable hobby chats that starts with a simple “maybe we should order something” and quickly turns into browsing old minis, movement trays, and trying not to cry over prices.

We got the first proper battle report from the first round of our first neighbourhood Cinquecento, and honestly, it had everything we want from Warhammer: The Old World: panic, failed charges, peasants overperforming way above their pay grade, dogs being...
We had one of those very familiar hobby mornings: a game was getting closer, the lists were definitely already done… and then, naturally, they were not done at all.
We had one of those very familiar hobby chat moments: someone drops a link, someone else says “hmm, not bad”, and five minutes later we are already halfway into planning future terrain, painted knights, and weird side-games from old White...
We’ve had one of those very familiar hobby moments lately: we looked at a few photos, played a few games, talked about lists for a bit… and suddenly Bretonnia was living rent-free in our heads.
There are hobby moments that instantly change how the whole table feels, and this was definitely one of them.
